Senate committee advances alcoholic beverage bill 1

Rep. Matthew Koch, R-Paris, testifies Tuesday on House Bill 439 during a meeting of the Senate Licensing and Occupations Committee.

The Senate Licensing and Occupations Committee approved a bill Tuesday that would create a regulatory structure for the commercial sale of vintage distilled spirits in Kentucky.

Under House Bill 439, vendors of vintage spirits would need to purchase a $300 annual license and file monthly reports with the state Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. The reports would provide information about individuals who supplied the vendors with inventory.
